Background

Personal Interests:

A native of Southwest Virginia, Dr. Burton first fell in love with East Tennessee while earning his undergraduate degree at the University of Tennessee. After completing medical school in West Virginia, Dr. Burton moved on to Cleveland, Ohio, where he finished a dual residency in both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. Dr. Burton chose a career in combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics in order to care for the whole family, allowing multiple family members to be seen at once. This also aids in the transition of pediatric patients to seeing an adult physician.
In his spare time, Dr. Burton enjoys spending time with his wife and two young children, cheering on the Vols and Green Bay Packers, and enjoying the great outdoors. Dr. Burton and his family are excited to be back in Knoxville and look forward to seeing you and your family in the office.
